Message from Shri V D Aggarwal

Dear Friends,

GST – A Game Changer Revolutionary Tax Reform will yield greater revenues and accelerate economic growth for the country.
However, our political system appears to be so immature that nobody is bothered to take cognizance of this realty whether in treasury benches or in opposition. This legislature which was pending for around two decades could able be enacted in 2017 and for the implementation, there is hue and cry rather than advising corrective measures with positive thoughts to implement particularly in the circumstances when all the decisions of GST council were taken unanimously with the representative of all the political parties and State Governments.
GST replaces 17 different central and state taxes, including services tax, value-added tax, octroi, duties and other charges, except Customs levy.

A. Transparency due to digitalization

Now tax payer is knowing that how much GST is contributing to national exchequer and it will promote booked transactions. Moreover the habitants are also more tech savvy and currently India has between 300-400 million smartphone users. The implementation of Goods and Services Tax, coupled with a digital economy will help Indian economy to look much cleaner and bigger. After implementation of GST, there will be very little interface between the tax payer and tax authorities. It will also curb the corruption.


B. Reduction in cost to end-user

Earlier the taxes were part of cost of product but now it is recoverable from consumer hence the cost will be reduced and people at large shall be benefitted. Government is doing needful in this direction. On an average the cost should be reduced by 10% to 12%.Contd...

C. Simplification in compliance – Ease to compliances

There is hue and cry against compliances even the main opposition party has also opposed it strongly. The filing of return is nothing but it is only the data of purchase and sale of the tax payer and reconciliation of invoices. In earlier tax regime, there were multiple of taxes including central taxes such as service tax and excise duties, and state taxes, such as octroi, entry tax, VAT etc. and where businessman had to pay taxes on all and to do too much compliance as compare to GST. Under old regime one has to file more than 100 returns as compare to 37 in the current regime. The present system is online hence will not require to deal with government officials in person which will make system more effective. Before demat regime, in equities no were going to believe that in India paper less trading in stock market is possible but with efforts of SEBI and other it become a reality and country and investor have gained a lot.


D. More liquidity to taxpayer

This will give strength to business houses by way of fast recovery and also quick refund and input credit mechanism.


E. Elimination of contingent liability and fast settlement of dispute.

Earlier on non-receiving of statutory forms like c forms etc. a huge contingent liability was used to be created which will be eliminated .


F. GSTN Portal

Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN), a special purpose vehicle (SPV), is a robust IT backbone and portal to enable real-time taxpayer registration, filing returns, handle invoices, and connect states for two-way data flow.

Outcome

I. Shift from Unorganized to Organized and Informal to Formal

II. Success


In spite of transitional period, The results are very much encouraging in collection of revenue as under;-



III. GST alone can add 1.5-2% to GDP growth

With the introduction of GST the economy of the country will not only increase but it will jump being all unaccounted transactions will have to shift in formal economy.


The collection of direct taxes is also on increasing side and now net direct tax receipts in the first half of the current financial year (FY 2017-18) touched two fifth of the budgeted Rs 9.8 trillion target and maintained a robust growth rate of 15.8%. Prior to adjusting for refunds, gross direct tax receipts during the April-September 2017 period stood at Rs4.66 trillion, showing a growth of 10.3% from a year ago.
